About Harter Brocken: Die Kronzeugin
A shootout, five fatalities and he himself wounded - in the otherwise quiet station of the village policeman Frank Koops, things are just like in the Wild West. The bloodbath was commissioned by the imprisoned mafia boss Petrovic, who wants to use all means to get rid of a key witness who was hidden in the tranquility of St. Andreasberg in the utmost secrecy.
Directed by Florian Baxmeyer, Harter Brocken: Die Kronzeugin leans on a strong ensemble — Aljoscha Stadelmann, Alwara Höfels, Anja Kling — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 2017.
